Name: SRv6 Operations

Description

As SRv6 adoption grows, making it work smoothly in real-world networks is crucial.
Based on the technical features of SRv6, there are operational issues requesting deep discussion, including SRv6 management, scalability, inter-domain, interoperations, migration, etc.
This proposed WG is to buildup a platform for network operators to share their deployment experience and develop best practices for SRv6. It is supposed to identify and dissect common deployment complexities.
The proposed WG can provide operational inputs and reviews to the relevant WGs (v6ops, SPRING, 6man) that develop SRv6 solutions to construct collaboration bridges, ensuring seamless SRv6 Operations integration with existing SRv6/IPv6 architectures and protocols.
The BOF is supposed to identify and discuss pressing operational issues from those deploying SRv6 in their networks. The BoF would also explore potential work items and deliverables for the proposed WG. Finaly, the BoF will discuss the proposed charter for a dedicated SRv6 Operations Working Group to dive deeper into these technical challenges and keep SRv6 moving forward.
The purpose of the BoF is to determine whether there is a community to support work on the topics described in the draft charter.
